Bear Islander...

Case closed??

Great way to debate... its like having a debate with a 5 year old spoiled child! All the logic, reason and data in the world will not change your mind. A mind is like a parachute, it only works when its open!

There is no speed issue on Lake Winnipesaukee! The MP report proved that! But yet your hatred for speedboats continues....

You should be very very careful what you wish for... you just might get it! Lets assume you get your wish and HB-847 passes... then some of these big guys go buy big cruisers. They have the $$$ and they aren't going to leave the lake. They are heavily vested in the area. I assume you'll be complaining about the big cruisers next? The shoreline erosion, dock damage, boat damage, wakes etc... I have seen the beating your boat & shoreline take on the day of the SeaRay Regatta and I used to feel bad for you. Now I am thinking you reap what you sow. Still others don't trade in thier boats, and continue to zoom around, safe in the knowledge that HB-847 is a paper tiger. Then no doubt you will be complaining about about how HB-847 isn't enforced enough.... I will be here to remind you every chance that I told you so!

Squam doesn't have an enforcement problem because the speed limit on Squam HAS NEVER BEEN ENFORCED!!! Squam is also a much smaller lake, controlled by the wealthy property owners... Go read up on the battle to get public access to Squam and how the Squam Lake Assoc would buy the property to prevent a public boat launch! That is until the state threatened to take some land by eminent domain....
